Spam and Guestbook 1.5

Spam and Guestbook 1.5

I am getting a lot of spam and I want to stay with 1.5 (databases cost extra with my provider).
So this is what I did:
1. Change the name off addentry.html to somethingelse1.html and the link to it from guestbook.html.
This did not help much, so I studied my log files and found out that the computer-spammers stil used the old addentry file. SO DELETE THAT FROM YOUR SERVER.
2. I noticed also in the logfile that the first piece of the command line was opening the cgi-bin/guestbook.pl file, so I changed that name into somethingelse2.pl and corrected the links to it, also in the file itself!!
I again forgot to throw away the old file, but not for long.
3. It is quiet now. Next I will probably change the of the guestbook.html file. Because I guess they go the easy way. Try Google for guestbook or addentry .
4. Also I can password protect directories with my provider and supply the pw in the pop-up box. I don't believe the spammers will go into the extra coding needed and I can change the pw often.
